Sounds great to see them released soon.
These are great variants, and lots of people have not had the chance to own them when they got released in the 80's.
We all had the battlearmor variants, but these are pretty special!
And I'd sure be willing to lay down those extra 5 dollars for the lasers to be working. That's the point really, right?
So yeah count me in!

Wait. . . why are we just assuming they'll cost ten dollars more and actually have electronics? I've never seen anything from TG or anyone else at Mattel that would make me comfortable stipulating to that.

I, for one, absolutely will not buy a regular-size MOTUC figure for 30 bucks just because his weapon lights up. In large part that's because I don't want them to light up.

Bring back the DESIGNS and CHARACTERS. Leave figure-ruining action features in the '80s.

So do I want Laser Light He-Man and Skeletor? ABSOLUTELY. Love those designs.

Do I want them to be unreasonably expensive night-lights? No sir. And I absolutely won't buy them if they turn out that way.

I have been patiently waiting as Mattel has made its way chronologically through the He-Man variants. Next up should be my personal most-wanted, Flying Fists He-Man. Which would, of course, make the laser figures next in line.

EDIT: Oh, yea. Put me down for no hight-up feature.

PoP Variants are part of the vintage line, too! Starburst She-Ra, Shower Power Catra, and Scratchin' Sound Catra for 2015!!!

both of them are amazingly cool. I'd love to see them as soon as possible. translucent weapons yeah, I don't think we'll get light up features though

but both of them are just so similar to their NA versions. I expect us to get NA versions first.

If they don't go with the electronics route, I'd at least think they would look into making part of Skeletor's head (and his hand of course) translucent so you can hold him up to light and get a "glowing eyes" feature.

On the NA point, they may share parts or at least be merged into a single variant since they are so similar.

I'd love to see them both pretty soon, though I think I may want Dragon Blaster Skeletor just a bit more.

*Edit* After thinking about it, I'm thinking I'd rather have them without electronics. I really want them though. As far as I'm concerned, they could also pack in the extras to convert them into the NA versions because to me, these are definitely a bridge between vintage and NA. If they did that, I'd buy 2 of each.

I'd prefer these figures to have the action feature, if it means we have to wait a while in order to get the action feature then thats ok with me, i'm also womdering if we'll ever see these released in classics seeing they look like the NA figures

I would like to see them released as a SDCC exclusive 2-pack. Hopefully in a cool diorama box where you could light them up without opening them. $50 range? maybe.. but it would probably be more in the $60 range.
